Episode 14
Nae Sang, are you done reading today's paper?
Look at that. Don't you think you'll get a good workout with it?
What is that?
It's an exercise machine you can use at home
and they say you just have to move around like this on it and you'll get a workout.
Like this? Like this?
I think we'll all be able to use it if we get one.
What do you think? Should we get one?
That? How much is it?
With a 50% discount, it's 120,000 won.
Should I call?
Let's not get one.
Why not?
Don't you think given our current situation we should save as much as possible?
We have to think about the kids' tuition and other finances.
You're a very care-free person, Nae Sang.
What?
Gye Sang, how can you say that?
Excuse me? What did I--
What do you mean care-free?
Are you trying to tell me that I'm being senseless because I went bankrupt?
That's not what I meant. I'm sorry if that's you felt.
It's not just what you said.
You were talking to me as though you were disciplining a child.
Is that so? I'm sorry.
It's just that the entire family needs to survive on Ji Suk and my salaries...
We won't live off your guys' salaries then!
Don't worry, we won't touch your money.
I'll work on construction sites, shine shoes, and do whatever it takes.
Don't worry, we won't ask you for your money.
You!
Nae Sang...
Just because I'm living in his house he thinks he can lecture me.
How should we end it?
Anyone have any ideas?
Just say it if you have any ideas.
-Uh... -What?
What do you think about Ji Ryung and Sae Ryung
dying in a car accident as they are about to part ways?
-Die? Why? -Because it's a difficult love to overcome.
You don't have to show them dying but end it with
Sae Ryung saying "I want time to stop right now."
I want you to stop right now.
Does it make sense that the main characters die in a sitcom?
And how does time freeze?
So I'm saying emotionally--
That's enough so why don't you go out emotionally and get us some coffee.
Yes. I'm sorry.
Dad, I have to pay for my school lunch so I need money.
Lunch? How much is it?
-100 thousand won? -100 thousand? Why is it so expensive?
Because it's a lie.
What do you mean lie?
Lunch is 40 thousand.
How dare you try to lie to your father.
I need some extra spending money.
My friends always buy me food when we go to the store.
Why should I be treated like a bum by my friends?
You can't be a bum.
How much allowance do you need?
Is 50 thousand won enough?
Are you really going to give it to me?
Let's give the kids 50 thousand won each for allowance.
Where will the money come from?
You have the money I gave you.
The money from Gye Sang? You think we still have it?
Do you think we've been wearing clothes off the streets?
And the kids' uniforms? School books?
You used it all already?
We used it all and now I'm going to have to ask Gye Sang to help pay for the kids' tuition.
I feel so bad asking him for more.
What?
When Uncle Gye Sang gets home,
I'll ask him about your guys' allowance when I ask him about the tuition so give me some time.
Why are you going to ask Gye Sang?
Why are you yelling?
Then do we have any other options other than Gye Sang?
Don't ask Gye Sang for it, I'll take care of it!
How are you going to do it?
I'll take care of it, don't chastise me!
-Where are you going to get the money? -Why does that matter? I'll get it! I will!
I'm going to leave this house if you ask Gye Sang for it!
How much do you need by when?
It's 900 thousand won, including their tuition and allowance, by Monday!
Monday it is. I will take care of everything by Monday.
This dang thing!
Hey! Do you know Baek Jin Hee?
Baek Jin Hee? What is it?
Just answer the question.
Do you know her or not?
I've never heard the name before.
Then why did you ask if you don't know her?
You think we're kidding?
My ban chan (side dishes)! Crap!
What? Crap?
That's not what I said. I said--
Do we need to beat some sense into you?
Please don't do this.
Why are you crying?
It just kind of happened, I'm sorry.
If anyone knows Baek Jin Hee call here immediately.
Yes, will do.
I haven't even tasted the jangjoreem yet. It's beef too.
I am not taking money from the Yoon family even if I die.
It's me. Can I borrow about 1 million won? I'll pay you back right away.
I'm in a meeting so...
-I'll call you back later -I'm sorry.
Jung Shik it's me. Can you lend me about 1 million won?
Young Chul it's Nae Sang. Can I borrow 1 mill--
Hello?
How did those people know that place?
Do you owe loan sharks money?
No, it's not like that.
What do I do?
Then what is it? They looked as though they'd bury you alive if they found you.
What do I do?
I'm home.
You have a guest. Hello.
Hello.
Jin Hee, what's wrong? Did something happen?
Ha Sun, what do I do?
I knew instantly I shouldn't tell them. So I told them I don't know her.
So did they just leave?
Of course not. It was chaos.
They threatened to bury me alive!
Oh my...
So I told them to kill me if they want. I'll die and they can go to jail.
Is it okay for you to talk to them like that?
Guys like that tend to be weak towards guys who come off strong like me.
I know that so well so it's okay.
What should we do?
If they found out about the dorms, then it's only a matter of time until they find out about here.
Do you think that will really happen?
Did you do an official change of address to here?
No.
Whatever you do don't change it.
Since they know your name, you should probably hide your identity for the time being.
How do I hide my identity?
Live by a different name. If they come and ask for you in the neighborhood,
make sure the neighbors don't call you Baek Jin Hee either.
That's right, we should do that.
Even so what if I run into them?
What do we do?
If you run into them just deny it to the end.
How...?
They've only seen you at night so they might be a little unsure too so just deny it if they ask you.
Or act like you're not Korean and act like you're Chinese.
Talk to them in nonsense Chinese to convince them you are.
Chinese?
I'm sorry to call so late.
You said you'd call after your meeting but I didn't hear back from you.
It's just that it's important. If you can lend me 1 million won...
You can't?
We're leaving. Ji Suk we're all ready!
-Have fun sleeping over. -I'll see you tomorrow dad.
Why don't you go with us?
I don't think I should be going to see your great-aunt.
She'll probably give me a hard time all night about putting your mom through this right now.
Alright that's enough. Anyways, did you get the money? We need it by tomorrow.
I know.
Tell me if ahead of time if you won' so I can ask Gye Sang. I don't want to--
I said I'll get the money!
Why are you getting mad at me?
-Sorry, let's go. -We'll be back.
Baek Jin Hee!
Hello.
What are you doing?
It's that...well...
Are you waiting for someone?
No...it's not that...
I'm really sorry but if you're on your way out can you walk to the intersection with me?
I'm not on my way out but I'll go with you.
But what's wrong?
Does it have anything to do with those guys?
Well I don't know if I have anything to do with them...
What?
No matter what please don't call me by my name and if I speak to you
in Chinese as though I'm from China please don't think I'm crazy.
What? Okay.
If they ask if I'm Baek Jin Hee, please tell them my name is Guo Jing Jing.
Guo Jing Jing?
Thank you. You could have just let me do all the talking but you did it with me.
It's nothing. Do you want me to call you by your Chinese name from now on? Guo Jing Jing?
Yes please. I'll see you later.
Guo Jing Jing? Guo Jing Jing? She's the one that asked me to call her that.
-Baek Jin Hee! -Yes?
-What is it? -I'll come over to take a look at your butt tomorrow.
Okay.
Can you let me borrow it for a bit? I asked everyone but no one was able to.
Okay.
I'm home!
Why is it so quiet?
That's right, everyone went to auntie's.
I'll be in my room.
Why are you here?
What if those guys follow you?
What happened to your face?
Let's talk inside.
They came to you again?
They were asking where you are and kept hitting me and were talking really viciously.
So did you tell them?
Of course not. If I do, everyone here will be in danger too.
I'd die before I do that.
Thank you.
When I kept saying I don't know where you are eventually they--
One second.
So what did those guys do?
-They... -What did they do?
Let me clean up those wounds a bit for you.
What did those guys do?
They said they've never met anyone like me and even said that they respect me.
You are so brave.
What do I do? I can't live like this forever.
You can endure it. It's not a big deal for me but...I have to get going.
You've been through a lot because of us. Have dinner at our place.
No, it's okay. Even if I eat dinner, I'll just throw it up when they hit my stomach.
I don't know why but they hit my stomach a lot.
That's terrible. Would you like to stay at our place for a few days?
Huh?
Is that okay Ha Sun?
Yes director. Right now? Okay.
Do you have to go back to work?
Yes.
I'm home. Who are the men in front of our house?
What? Someone's there?
It's so quiet without anyone home.
What are you doing? Watching baseball?
Did you get the money? We need it by tomorrow. Did you get the money? We need it by tomorrow.
I'll work on construction sites, shine shoes, and do whatever it takes.
Don't worry, we won't ask you for your money.
Gye Sang...
Yes?
I'm really sorry but can you lend me 1 million won?
1 million won?
I'm really sorry. Do you think I can borrow that? Please don't tell your sister about it.
I just want to be a good father and husband.
You said you won't ask me for help anymore.
I'm really sorry. I tried everything and I couldn't get the money.
I'll get down on my knees if you want me to.
Don't do that Nae Sang.
No it's nothing. A man with no money should not have any pride.
Nae Sang.
Should we eat?
It's pretty late.
Sure. Let's do that.
Gye Sang. Can I borrow 1 million won?
-1 million won? -Yes.
We need to pay the kids' tuition and give them some
spending money and I want to be a good father.
You said you won't ask me for help anymore.
I was just saying that. Just help us won't you?
-Okay, okay. -Are you going to give it or not?
I'll give it to you!
It's those guys isn't it?
Seems like it.
What do I do? I have to go right now.
Then don't go Jin Hee. Just stay home.
What do I do? I have to go.
-Oh. What do I do? -Tell them you can't go right now. Your life is in danger!
I have to pick up!
Yes director. I can't make it right at the moment, would it be okay if I'm a little late?
Tell them you need one day off. Can Jin Hee get one day off?
What are they saying? Who is that?
-It's my roommate. -So you want a day off?
It's not that but I have a situation...
Okay then. Get some rest. From today onwards.
It's not that it's-- Director?
What did he say?
-Hey why are you coming out here? -There's not much to help with inside.
Want to watch the news?
Before we do that, lend me some money.
Just 1 million won.
What for?
Please don't ask why and just give it to me.
Was I holding onto money for you?
I'm sorry.
Next is lifestyle. A man who was struggling to support his family
was arrested while trying to rob a convenience store today.
This is the footage caught on tape of a man wearing a mask robbing a convenience store.
The man wore this mask and was caught while attempting to
steal about 200 thousand won from this convenience store.
He said that he committed the crime to support his family.
My business failed and I needed to pay my children's tuition. I'm sorry.
I'm going to go to bed now.
You're going to sleep?
Yup. Good night.
Seeing the lights turned off in Gye Sang's room
Nae Sang hated himself for being so prideful and losing his last chance to get the 1 million won.
I said it's fine. You don't need to come. Get lots of rest.
Remember I told you I saw a beautiful woman when I went to drop off the bill?
Yeah, the Empress from Empress Myung Sung's house.
I'm going to sleep over here. She was cleaning up my wound and I lost my breath.
I lied that those gangsters came again and went crazy on me.
Occupation? She's a school teacher.
-HEY! -Scared me!
-You lied to us? -Hold on a second--
You jerk!
Stay right there you jerk!
Stop right there! You lying fool! Where are you going?
-Why? Why? -1004, hold on.
I've been so scared and lost my job over this. Why did you do that! Why!
I did it because I like Ha Sun so much!
What?!
They really came at first but then I wanted to look good in front of Ha Sun so I lied a bit. So what?
How can you call yourself a man?
Stop right there you son of a --
Nae Sang could not sleep that night.
It was because the next morning, his pride as head of the family would be burned to crisp.
As the morning started to peek through the window,
Nae Sang thought of a way to get the money from Gye Sang without hurting his pride and asking him.
He decided it was the best way to explain his situation without hurting his pride.
He took out Gye Sang's shoes and started to polish them, waiting for him to come out.
I left the house early because there was an ER patient.
Is that so? You're working so hard...
I'm really sorry but do you think you can deposit that money I asked you about
yesterday this morning? Nae Sang said he'd take care of it but I don't think he will...
Okay, I'll deposit it as soon as I get to my office.
Nae Sang could see his reflection in Gye Sang's shoes and thought to
himself that he would refuse the money at least twice before accepting it.
And he also thought it would be nice if people didn't have to experience such things in life.
Few days later.
Jin Hee, today's the last episode of the sitcom you worked on.
Jin Hee, what happens to those two?
I don't know because I got fired before it ended.
I wish time would stop.
Time...would stop?
That's my idea!
He said that they can't die in a sitcom and how can time stop!
